I heard that www.takakaira.com has them for sale. Even though they don't have it on the site i remember reading a post that if you e-mail them they can get it.

*btw.. its "mint blue", not "blue mint"
besides that, takakaira sells autoexe, not mintblue...i believe.
this is what you want?...http://www.mintblue.co.jp/familia/sport20/sport20.html

I think one of the nicest body kits that ive seen for the mp3 is from Wings West.... its about $1300 retail... but it includes:
1. F Bumper
2.a. R sideskirt
2.b. L sideskirt
3. R Bumper
4. Hood Bonnet
5. R Window "Spoiler" (kind of like a small lip over top of rear window)
6.a. FL fender flare
6.b. FR fender flare
6.c. RL fender flare
6.d. RR fender flare
the thing i like about this kit is that it is very similar to the stock body... since alot of ppl bought the mp3 because it was so stylish... some may not want to stray too far from that... it adds EXCELLENT effects and accents in the perfect spots.. which makes it "extreme" but not way too freaky to be stylish like some kits that you will see... it looks great... check it out at http://www.wingswest.com/

Hey, ToLowMP5 how did you go about getting the kit. I have been trying to get it. Have been waiting on people who said that they were doing a group buy but all of a sudden there is no mention of it. If you could email me all the spacifics (who you went through, how much, did you need a broker ect) would greatly appreciate it:D My email is gfuhr@telusplanet.net
Thanks Marco

The only thing is that the headlights are different...like the pre-2000 Proteges.

yah, linux... that and the fact that the front bumper is ugly ;) j/k :p
but seriously.. the skirts and rear are PHATTY BO BATTY! but the front bumper looks kinda strange... its one of those weird foreigner things... lol j/k but i have noticed there are alot of those mini-minivans in japan w/ those kinda weird bumpers... that look like they are too fat and plain... there really isnt much going on, and what is going on I'm not too fond of... it just looks like... squashed... or flattened or somethin.. i cant put my finger on what it is about that style.. its just kinda weird lookin to me

i like it. and its good that people have different opinions on styling so everyone won't be driving around with the same stuff on their car all the time. :p

i agree
not saying theres anything wrong with it... its just not for me... but the skirts and rear are pimp! those parts w/ the autoexe stuff would be awesome

yeah the side skirts and back do look nice...i like it because its something different from the ordinary...kind of reminds me of the autoexe...not as clean though...i agree...it does remind me of a lot of japansese bodykits...my brother in law just came back from japan and be bought a bunch of magazines...there's some CRAZY stuff out there...i mean CRAZY!!!

I really like that gialla kit ... all of it ... front, sides & especially the rear... looks sweet.... those rims aren't so bad either! but I'm more partial to that look :-]

yah.. there is some GOOD SHIT in japan...
im getting some JT AERO front "winglets"... they are like.. hmm.. how to describe... they are kinda triangle shaped pieces of urethane that attach to the side edges of the front bumper... kinda like downforcers, but instead of underneat the bumper like a lip, they are on the sides... hard to explain.... wil post pics as soon as i find some... the only ones i've seen have been in a few magazines... but my shop (Xtreme Racing) just imported A SHITLOAD of japanese body accessories... so they have a surplus of universal stuff like that along with specific kits for certain cars...

Im the one who wanted to start a GB, I already have the side skirts, all I need is the rear bumper. Let me know if you guys want the Gb, It'll take 6-8 weeks to get.
